Work will be performed from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. Tuesday and Wednesday, Aug. 16 to 17.

This work will require one-way flagging traffic operations on the southbound lane and shoulder on Tuesday. On Wednesday, work will switch over to the northbound lane. Due to the nature of preexisting culvert layout, crews will be required to block off parking each day. See photograph for areas of impact and schedules.
